In your case, it's actually your Gaphics Card, I know this sounds silly, but the game is more stable on the GTX 1070 than on the GTX 1080. Silly, but that's how it is. If you're on a Desktop Tower PC, try switching to On-Board Graphics, and see if that makes a difference (works for some people who use the same Graphics Card as you).

My Specifications (I don't get the stuttering):
CPU: i7 6700K (4.0GHz)
RAM: 32GB (4x 8GB at 3200MHz)
OS: Windows 7 Pro
Drives: SSD Gigabyte UD Pro (multiple)
512GB SSD for OS
512GB SSD for Game
512GB SSD for Origin Client
Each of these is handled by a separate Drive, kind of just happened like that, really funny.
Resolution: 1600x900
GPU: GTX 1070 8G
Full-Screen Mode

As I said, I don't get this issue, so if my System Specification helps you work out what works, and not just what doesn't work, then great. Though I do get other bugs, that's actually due to bugs in the game's code, and not my system.

@GENERALZOOL what steps would I have to undertake exactly?

And I think this game is just extremely poorly optimized, it takes up a TON of cpu. And ur right, on HD graphics i get a lot of graphical glitches, freezes, stuttering, etc. (On old graphics i have similar issues, simply less severe).

      @GENERALZOOL Dont think that's the issue for me. Ill follow the suggestions and check back to you. There's just something so poorly optimizied, which is weird because my cpu and gpu are way above the minimum requirements.

      Funny thing, yesterday it was working almost perfectly. Almost no freezes, decent fps, etc. On hd graphics, too. And today I launch the game, it crashes 4 times before I can start a skirmish and I get the same errors as i got day 1. Extremely frustrating.

      @GENERALZOOL Now I can't even launch the game. So in the past few days, this has been my experience:

      Days 1-3: Issues launching the game. Works after uninstalling 4-5 times at random. max 5 fps in game. Long freezes that get longer over time, eventually crashing. Graphical glitches. Sound glitches.

      Day 4: Uninstalled and reinstalled one more time. Works perfectly (?????), played GDI missions until mission 7.

      Day 5: Same issues as day 1. Reinstalled. Cant launch the game now.

      Reading several forums, tons and tons of people have similar issues. The game is a buggy, unoptimized mess and it looks like a quick cash grab from EA. I am severely disappointed.
